Yin Yoga....Meeting Your Self in Stillness
A 3.5 hour workshop introducing the Quiet and introspective approach of Yin Yoga. Little has been known about this tradition of Yoga until only recently. To explain Yin Yoga via words is akin to describing the taste of chocolate! One must experience Yin to know it. It’s still. It’s quiet. It’s deep…and it works! Yin targets the connective tissue of the body….with huge effects on flexibility and movement of energy. Yin counteracts our Yang way of life these days. All in all....it’s pretty awesome! Come see why yogis LOVE Yin Yoga!
For all levels. Yoga Teachers, and students of yoga. Everyone welcome!
